Genesis 3

What I believe God shared about Genesis 3: 
The greatest desire of humans is to be like God and to be wise (Genesis 3:5 and 6). This is exactly what I want for you also. I do not want to withhold anything from you but when you attempt to be like Me without Me or when you try to find wisdom yourself then you run into problems. To this day I do not withhold anything from you that leads you to be like Me, nor do I withhold wisdom from those who seek it. It may come to you in ways that are unexpected, but I never withhold it.

Proverbs 3:5  gives the antidote for all that was done in that moment in the garden. “Be not wise in your own eyes; fear the Lord, and turn away from evil.” (ESV) You can see that their eyes were opened in Genesis 3:7 and now I ask you to close your eyes to your own knowledge that tells you that you are naked, and instead not to be wise in your own eyes but fear Me and turn away from evil. No, your eyes are not evil. I created them, how can they be evil, but when you try to be like Me and when you try to trust in yourself and find wisdom in yourself you end up being wise in your own eyes which leads to seeing from a perspective of evil instead of a perspective if perfection.

This is important because look what is caused by wanting to be Me and to be wise without My direct guidance and presence…Genesis 8 “the man and his wife hid themselves from the presence of the Lord God among the trees of the garden.” It causes you to want to hide from Me and to be away from My presence. Here is an important point. My Presence is what keeps you safe. My Presence is what causes you to be like Me. My Presence is what causes you to be wise. My Presence is what allows you to fear Me the way I desire you to fear Me, which is what is absolutely best for you.

Resist evil and simply be in My Presence. Don’t be afraid as the Israelites were afraid of being in My Presence. They wanted Moses to be their intermediary because they were scared of Me and so they did not come as close to Me as they could. Joshua was an exception to this because he stood outside the tent of meeting where Moses and I talked face to face (Exodus 33:11) and then he went into the tent to be in My Presence after Moses and I talked. Be like Joshua. I know this will bother many of you but don’t worry about getting all the religious stuff right. Don’t be concerned about every command and everything you need to do in order to be My people. Yes, of course theses are very important but they all come from one thing. My Presence. When you are in My Presence it is possible to obey all of My commands. When you are not in My Presence it simply is not. 

Fear Me – it is the beginning of all wisdom (Proverbs 9:10). But don’t be afraid of Me, just fear Me. You want wisdom, but what you really want is My Presence which leads to being like Me and it leads to the very wisdom you desire. You do not desire the wisdom of the world. You desire the wisdom available to you from the Garden of Eden, the wisdom of heaven. This is the wisdom you desire so fear Me and find this wisdom.

I will open your eyes to My beauty and the very thing you desire most. Turn away from evil and let Me be your God. Simply enjoy Me and My Presence and if you have a hard time finding My Presence do anything in your power to find someone who can help you connect with Me and really experience Me directly. There are plenty of people to help with this. I have created them specifically to help. Seek them out, test them, and reward them generously for the incredible thing they are doing for you and for the world. My prophets connect you to Me and My words. They are here to help. Be generous with them and honor them, for I will honor you too. (Matthew 10:41).
